7 Integration
This section describes the integration through RIB, batches, and web services.
Retail Integration Cloud Service (RICS) - based Integration
Customer Orders
-
Customer Order Create is used for Customer Orders that are a type of Web Order integrated through a message (FulfilOrdDesc). These integrations are used for the customer order from the Order Management System (OMS).
-
The Customer Order Create failure message (FulfilOrdCfmDesc) is a message that will be sent out to external system when we get a Customer Order that comes into the system through the RIB and fails due to validation issues such as an invalid item. The purpose of the create failure is so other systems will know it has failed when it came in and that it is not being processed.
-
The Stock Order Status message (SOStatusDesc) will be sent out with an SI upon reserving inventory for the customer order.
Picking
-
A Stock Order Status message (SOStatusDesc) is sent out with a type of SI upon reserving inventory. This happens when more is picked than what was on the order due to tolerances. This could also occur when a substitute item is added during the picking process.
-
The Stock Order Status message (SOStatusDesc) with a type of SD will be published to un-reserve the original items inventory when a substitute item has been added during picking.
-
A Stock Order status message (SOStatusDesc) is sent out with a type of PP when picking is completed.
-
Item Substitutes are sent to EICS from the merchandising system through the item message (ItemDesc).
Deliveries
-
An ASN Out message (ASNOutDesc) is sent out upon dispatching of the Delivery. This will be done for pick-ups and for shipments.
-
The Stock Order Status message (SOStatusDesc) with a type of PP will be published for the pick quantity in the scenario that more was delivered than what was picked.
-
The Stock Order Status message (SOStatusDesc) with a type of SI will be published for the reserved quantity. This will occur when more was delivered than what was reserved. This can happen when picking was not required, the reservation occurs upon receipt of a delivery, and the full amount had not been received, therefore not reserved.
Reverse Picking
-
Customer Order Cancellations (FulfilOrdRef) will come into EICS from external system such as an OMS through the RIB. This service will perform all the validations to determine if it should create a reverse pick and whether or not that reverse pick should be auto completed.
-
Customer Order Cancellation Confirmation (FulfilOrdRef) is a message to send to OMS upon completing of the system-generated reverse pick.
-
Stock Order Status message (SOStatusDesc) with a type of SD will be published for the reserved quantity to un-reserve the inventory for the reverse pick for system-generated picks.
-
Stock Order Status message (SOStatusDesc) with a type of PU will be published for the reverse picked quantity to un-pick the inventory for system-generated picks.
Multi Leg
The following integrations are in addition to the standard integrations that already exist such as receipt message, and so on:
-
The Stock Order Status message (SOStatusDesc) with a type of SI will be published for the reserved quantity.
-
The Stock Order Status message (SOStatusDesc) with type of PP will be published for the picked quantity.
RIB Payloads
RIB payloads are used to communicate information to external systems through RIB Integration.
RIB Payload | Description |
---|---|
FulfilOrdDesc |
RIB payload that contains information about a new web order type of fulfillment order to be created in. |
FulfilOrdCfmDesc |
RIB payload sent from EICS that contains fulfillment order information when that order creating in EICS failed |
FulfilOrdRef |
RIB payload that contains information about a fulfillment order cancelation. It is sent to EICS to convey a cancelation request and sent from EICS to convey actual cancellations. |
SOStatusDesc |
Sent from EICS to convey changes in item status for a specific fulfillment order. Such changes of status include (un)reservation and (un)picking. |
ASNOutDesc |
Sent from EICS to convey a delivery for specified fulfillment order. |
Purchase Orders and Vendor Deliveries
MERCHANDISING publishes the Purchase Orders created for the direct store deliveries using RIB messages. EICS subscribes to these messages and stores them in the EICS database to enable receipt against Purchase Orders.
MERCHANDISING publishes the unit cost of the item at the item/supplier/country level for EICS to use in the receiving process.
EICS publishes the receipts done against the Purchase Order to the merchandising system (Receiving message).
EICS publishes the DSD receipts created in EICS without a Purchase Order to the merchandising system (DSDReceipts and DSD Deals messages).
EICS publishes the receiver unit adjustment done for the deliveries that are already confirmed (receiving message).
EICS is also capable of subscribing to the vendor EDI ASNs through RIB using the ASN In message format.
RIB payloads are used to communicate information from EICS to external systems and from external system to EICS through RIB Integration.
RIB Payload (Subscriber) | Description |
---|---|
PORef |
RIB payload that contains reference level information of a purchase order.This payload is used for removal of purchase orders. |
PODesc |
RIB payload that contains detailed information of a purchase order.This payload is used for creation and modification of purchase orders. |
ASNInRef |
RIB payload that contains reference level information of an ASN. This payload is used for removal of an ASN. |
ASNInDesc |
RIB payload that contains detailed information about the ASN. This payload is used for creation of a direct delivery (document type= 'P') or a warehouse delivery (document type= 'D'). EICS consumes this payload from warehouse when source and/or destination for ASN is a warehouse system. |
RIB Payload | Description |
---|---|
ReceiptDesc |
RIB payload that contains detailed information of the direct delivery receipt. This is published when the purchase order is not null. EICS also consumes this payload for warehouse receiving. |
DSDReceiptDesc |
RIB payload that contains detailed information of the direct delivery receipt. This is published when the purchase order is null. |
SOStatusDesc |
RIB payload sent from EICS to convey changes in item status for a specific fulfillment order. EICS also consumes this payload from warehouse for stock movements originating at the warehouse. |
InvAdjustDesc |
RIB payload that contains information about destination of the adjustment and an InvAdjustDtl. |
Inventory Adjustments
Inventory adjustments integrate to MERCHANDISING at the item level using the RIB. EICS creates the adjustments and groups them together by a header with multiple items, but for integration purposes they are published out at an item level.
Inventory adjustments are published for all manual and external system generated adjustments where the Publish indicator for the reason code is checked. Adjustments are also published for other types of transactions in EICS where the merchandise system is expecting an adjustment for stock on hand updates, for example, receiving a DSD with damaged goods. An adjustment is created behind the scenes only for publishing purposes to notify the merchandising system to move the goods into the unavailable bucket. These system type adjustments are not considered an adjustment within EICS; however, they are published as such for integration purposes.
EICS subscribes to inventory adjustment messages from warehouse systems and updates the warehouse inventory buckets in EICS.
RIB payloads are used to communicate to external systems through RIB Integration.
The following table shows the list of RIB Payloads available for inventory adjustments.
RIB Payload | Description |
---|---|
InvAdjustDesc |
RIB payload that contains information about destination of the adjustment and an InvAdjustDtl. |

EICS does not integrate using a web service to any other Oracle Retail products for stock counts.
Transfers
The Transfer Shipping allows for creating shipment, dispatching shipment, canceling shipment, creating container, approving container, adjusting container, and canceling the container.
The Transfer Receiving dialog allows for confirming receipt, copying misdirected container, receiving container and detailed receiving.
This section covers creating transfer documents which are then included in a transfer shipment and dispatched to another store, warehouse, or finisher.
Transfer Creation
Transfer documents can be created in the following ways:
-
Requesting store can create a transfer request.
-
Sending store can initiate a transfer by creating a transfer.
-
Merchandising can create a transfer request.
Each transfer document will have one or more items.
Transfer Messages
EICS will publish messages to Merchandising when the following happen:
-
Transfer is rejected.
-
Transfer is approved.
-
Transfer quantity is updated from the shipment.
Transfer Shipment Creation
Transfer Shipment describes the containers and the items for the shipment taking place. The shipment may be for one or more transfer documents if the transfer is going to the same destination. Dispatching a shipment will update the transfer document.
The user can create a shipment without referencing existing transfers or can create a new transfer on fly (Ad hoc transfer) based on the shipment information.
Transfer Receiving
This transaction captures a delivery that took place from a warehouse, store, or finisher to the store receiving the delivery. It describes the containers and the items of the delivery that should be received by the store. Receiving a container of the delivery will update the transfer document.

Vendor Return
RTV Creation
RTVs can only be created by a request from MERCHANDISING:
Each vendor return will have one or more items.
RTV Shipment
Each RTV shipment will tie back to a single vendor return document.
RTV shipment can be created in two ways:
-
From an externally initiated approved vendor return document.
-
Creation of ad hoc vendor return shipment which will create an approved vendor return on the fly.
Each vendor return shipment will have one or more containers; each container in turn will have one or more items.
EICS may publish messages when the following happens:
-
RTV shipment container is updated, and saved (Return To Vendor Publish)
-
RTV shipment is cancelled or rejected (Return To Vendor Publish)
-
RTV shipment is dispatched (Return to Vendor Publish and Ship Info Desc Publish, if dispatched without submitting)
-
RTV shipment is submitted (Ship Info Desc Publish)
-
RTV shipment container is confirmed (RTV manifesting, if configured)
-
RTV shipment is submitted (Pre-shipment notification, if configured)

Web Services
EICS provides a large range of web services to manage the processing of information that is controlled within EICS. Each web service covers a topical area of functionality within EICS and contains numerous operations within to accomplish this functionality. This document is only meant as an outline or summary into using EICS web services and assumes the user has access to the fully documented APIs through the publishing of the web services themselves.
Note:
The WSDL files are available to download from My Oracle Support (MOS) Document 2614551.1.
Security Considerations
The SOAP web services provided by EICS are secured by Policy A using Oracle WebLogic WS-Policy configurations defined in the xml files included in Oracle WebLogic:
-
Policy A
-
Description: Message must be sent over SSL and requires authentication of a plain text UsernameToken.
-
Configuration: Wssp1.2-2007-Https-UsernameToken-Plain.xml
-
Customers should create IDCS or OCI IAM user and the user should be assigned integration_users IDCS or OCI IAM application role to access the web-service endpoints.
See Oracle Retail Enterprise Inventory Cloud Service Security Guide and Oracle Retail Enterprise Inventory Cloud Service User Guide - Security chapter.
For REST web service security see REST WEB Services Security Considerations later in this guide.

Web Services Basic Design Principles
Empty Response
In the cast that a web service does not return any information (an empty list), the external system needs to understand that this is a valid response that indicates no item, transaction or queried information was found or retrieved. For example, performing a lookup in which the search criteria entered matched no input.
Error Return Key
Errors returned through a web service will be in the form of a key. This key should be translated into correct language and verbiage by the external system. EICS will not do this translation or provide English verbiage for the encountered web service error.
Boolean Data Type
If a Boolean is the data type on the interface to EICS, and no value is provided, EICS will default the value to False.
Configured System Options in EICS
Web services apply system configurations to the request that are coming in through the web service but assumes that all input validation that requires user interaction to confirm has been completed by the consumer of the web service (the third party system). This system configuration user-interaction option will be assumed to have been confirmed during the web service processing. In case the system option is a fixed restriction that does not require user interaction, and the input fails this restriction, the web service will return an error. For example:
-
Shipping inventory when inventory is less than 0 can be allowed by the user of EICS. The web service assumes that the third party application did prompt the user or that their business always allows the user to do this activity.
-
Adding a non-ranged item requires both a system configuration option to be enabled and the user to confirm the process. If the system configuration does not allow it, the web service will block the transaction and return an error. If the system configuration does allow adding non-ranged items, it is automatically assumed that a user confirmed its addition, and the web service adds the item.
-
Allowing Receiver Unit Adjustments are dependent on a period of time. If a receiver unit adjustment were to come into EICS after that period, it would automatically be rejected, and the web service would return an error regardless of presentation or confirmation of user done by the external system.
Internally Managed vs Externally Managed
Internally Initiated
Internally initiated indicates the EICS was responsible for the original creation of the transaction being processed. A web service that creates a new transaction within EICS to be managed creates an internally initiated transaction.
Externally Initiated
Externally initiated indicates that another system created the transaction, has information about it, and notifies EICS of its creation through a notification system, not by requesting EICS create new information. EICS might manage the data after the notification but did not create the data.
Internally Managed
Internally managed data is information in which EICS is responsible for tracking its state and processing its life cycle. Our deliveries and shipments are primary examples of this. They may be externally initiated or internally initiated, but either way, they are internally managed. EICS is responsible for approving, picking, packing, manifesting, and dispatching the system and internally manages that process.
Externally Managed
Externally managed data is information that EICS does not process or track and is simply informed about after the externally managed data is complete. Point-of-sale transactions are a perfect example of this. We do not manage the sale, but once it is complete, EICS is notified and adjusts the inventory accordingly.
Web Services
EICS web services are intended for integration to allow a system using those services to control the flow and processing within EICS. Our web services are primarily designed (almost all of them) to internally manage the information. The services are intended to be used real time with the steps such as approving, picking, and dispatching occurring with real time access to EICS web services while the process is happening.
EICS web services are not designed for externally managed information. If a system is controlling the state managements itself and not informing EICS until later, this will produce out-of-sync inventory. For example, if you create a shipment, pack the shipment, and send it out and then a day later use the web service, to create, update, and dispatch the shipment, all dates and processing of inventory movements will be tagged with the later date as if they occurred real time when the web service is used.
The point-of-sale service is an externally managed service, where the timestamp on the service can be any date and EICS handles the logic of dating things according to that timestamp. Inventory Adjustment also has an "adjustment date" which represents the time the adjustment took place and so the movement of inventory can be controlled externally.
Web Service Operation Basic Design Standards
This section discusses the general approach and design standards for naming and intent regarding operations within a web service.
Lookup
Lookup operations take either an identifier of a set of criteria and find all the relevant records associated to it. A thin or light view of the data being asked for is returned giving reference to information you can do further interrogation on.
Read
Read operations take an identifier and return all relevant information to it. It may only be one level, however. For example, reading a transfer shipment returns only all the information at the shipment level and does not read information at the container or item level. Usually, the entity that contains items will also retrieve the items. Reading a container will return the container information and the item information within.
Create
Create usually inserts and generates something new and returns an identifier, reference, or handle to that information. Create normally does not take a great deal of information, such as items or anything, but rather gives you a set of IDs that then lets you update the transaction with that reference.
Save or Update
Save or update is used to modify the data usually without changing state on the transaction. The save or update operation is used to add items, remove items, edit attributes, change quantities and all the other tasks one does during a process.
Approve, Cancel, Confirm or Dispatch
Activities that change state take in a simple identifier and then process that state change. To dispatch a shipment, you pass in a reference only to the shipment and it becomes shipped, updating the inventory. This means all changes are done through the save operations prior to making the state change.
Interpreting Validation Errors
If some data could not be processed, the web service will return a fault or a validation fault. The general form that a fault will take is to be a series of problem detail nodes containing a key and value that describes the fault. The first problem detail node will have the key ERROR and the value will be a description of the error type such as INVALID_INPUT. This will be followed by a series of nodes where the KEY is an object class name (ex: Transfer) and the value is its identifier (ex: 123) describing the hierarchy of data the error took place in. For example, a transfer container fault would have two nodes (Transfer:123) and then (TransferCarton:456). If a specific attribute is known, the final node in any problem detail series, it will have the key ATTRIBUTE and the value will be the name of the attribute of the error (ex: ITEM_ID:A5X).
Problem Detail Name | Value |
---|---|
ERROR |
This describes the error (for example: INVALID_INPUT) |
ATTRIBUTE |
Identifies the specific attribute that had an error. |
EICS follows the same business rules when processing information from a web service as it does from any of its clients, so the same business rules and functionality that exist in the User's Guide also exists for the web service. Understanding the basic functionality will help interpret why the validation or processing error occurred.
Common Error Codes
The following codes are paired as values to the ERROR Key:
Error Code | Description |
---|---|
ACTIVITY_LOCK_NOT_GRANTED |
Indicates that a requested activity lock on a piece of data was not granted. |
DUPLICATE_INPUT |
Indicates the service would create a duplication of input that should be unique. |
INVALID_DATE_RANGE |
Indicates the end date of a date range is prior to the start date. |
INVALID_INPUT |
Indicates that the input is invalid. This error is usually followed by object and attribute information. |
INVALID_ITEM |
Indicates the item does not exist in the system. |
INVALID_STATE_FOR_UPDATE |
Indicates the transaction or data specified is not in a state that allows it to be updated (such as canceled). |
INPUT_MISMATCH |
Indicates the input to the web service has been altered incorrectly when compared to existing data. For example, the store identifier is different on the web service request than the currently existing transaction. |
INPUT_TOO_LARGE |
Indicates the input in the web service is larger than is allowed in the transaction date. |
ITEM_NOT_RANGED |
Indicates the item has not been activated in the location for which the request is made. |
MULTIPLE_STORE |
Indicates a batch of input data (such as a point-of-sale transaction) was for more than one store in a single web service call. |
TIMEZONE_NOT_GMT |
Indicates the time input of the web services was not in GMT. |
UOM_MISMATCH |
Indicates a mismatch of unit of measure information between the input and currently existing data that does not allow the information to be accurately merged. |

Web Services
Web services available in EICS:
ActivityLock
The following operations are available within the ActivityLock web service.
Operation | Description |
---|---|
lookupActivityLock |
Retrieves information about one or more activity locks that match the input criteria. |
readActivityLock |
Retrieves detailed information about a single lock using its identifying reference. |
createActivityLock |
Created an activity lock on a transaction. |
deleteActivityLock |
Deletes an activity lock thereby releasing processing on a transaction. |
Standard Usage
An activity lock is a record indicating the user, time, and a piece of information (a transaction) that should be considered "locked". All server processing validates that the accessing user has a lock on the information before updating, notifying the current user if someone else has modified the information while they were locked and preventing the stale update.
Developers should create locks on information prior to performing update calls and delete locks when the update if finished. For example, create a lock on inventory adjustment with ID 123 with the ActivityLock service, then use saveInventoryAdjustment
in the Inventory Adjustment service with Adjustment 123, and then delete the activity lock using the ActivityLock service. If you do not gain the lock, you will receive an error when attempting to save an inventory adjustment.
FulfillmentOrderDelivery
The following operations are available within the FulfillmentOrderDelivery web service.
Operation | Description |
---|---|
lookupFulfillmentOrderDeliveryHeaders |
Retrieves summary information for fulfillment order deliveries that match the search criteria input. |

. Create a container on the shipment using createTransferShipmentContainer
and update the container with items and quantities using saveTransferShipmentContainer
. Confirm the container using confirmTransferShipmentContainer
. Repeat the process for each container as needed. Once all containers are confirmed, if configured to require submittal, submit the shipment using submitTransferShipment
and finally, dispatch the shipment using dispatchTransferShipment
. Dispatching the shipment finalizes the shipment and relieves the inventory.

. Use updateVendorDelivery
to update header attributes and updateVendorDeliveryContainer
to update items and quantities in the container. To quickly receive the quantities, receiveVendorDeliveryContainer
automatically fills in quantities, and when quantities are complete confirmVendorDeliveryContainer
finalizes the container and if appropriate configurations and business rules apply, immediately updates the inventory. If receiveVendorDelivery
or confirmVendorDelivery
is used, then all containers will either be received or confirmed respectively. Re-opening a container can be done using openVendorDeliveryContainer
. To prevent further updates to the container without confirming it, use submitVendorDeliveryContainer
. Submitted container can be re-opened and moved to in-progress status for further updates using cancelSubmitVendorDeliveryContainer
.

REST WEB Services
Web services are intended for integration to allow a system using those services to control the flow and processing of data within EICS. There are multiple types of data involved in this integration. Data that is managed by other systems and needs to get into our system, but that EICS does not manage. This includes such concepts as item, stores, and point-of-sale transaction. Data that is managed by EICS includes such ideas as inventory adjustments, transfers, deliveries, and stock counts. Some services will provide ability for external data to get into EICS, some are intended to be used real time such as approving, picking, and dispatching shipments.
REST WEB Services Security Considerations
The REST web services provided by EICS are secured using OAuth2 tokens and require SSL.
The supported OAuth2 security requires a token requested for the client_credentials grant with the EICS integration scope (for example, rgbu:siocs:integration).
Note that the scope name differs for each environment.
Please see the REST Web Service OAuth2 Requests for details on requesting tokens.
REST WEB Services Basic Design Principles
Requests and Responses
When making requests and processing responses from REST web services it is important for the client to handle headers correctly.
The client should always use Accept for the appropriate content type when making requests.
The client should always check the response status code and Content-Type header before processing a response body.
When reading a payload from the response body, the Content-Length header must be used safely and securely along with the Content-Type.
This is important even for error responses. It is possible for errors to occur outside of the REST API layer, which may produce different content for the error. In these cases, it is common to get text or HTML content for the response body.
API Versioning
Accept-Version
The REST end points have an optional API versioning feature allowing the client to specify an API version to be accepted.
This may be used by the client to ensure that no calls may be made to a web service that uses an incorrect version number.
For example: Accept-Version: 22.1.301
If the web service does not support this API version, then the server will produce a 400 Bad Request error response.
Content-Type
application/json
The content type of both REST input and returned output is application/json.
In the case that no content is included, a content type may not be assigned.
When handling REST service responses, the client must always check the returned Content-Type and Content-Length before processing the payload.
JSON Validation
When consuming a REST service end point that requires a request payload as JSON, the client is responsible for verifying that the JSON is valid. If invalid data is sent in a request, there may be a server error processing the JSON or it may ignore some fields if the JSON is valid but does not map correctly to the API payload definition.
Always make sure that the client sends valid JSON that is designed to satisfy the API payload definition.
Synchronous vs Asynchronous
Each service API will be defined as synchronous or asynchronous. Both perform JSON validation as described above. If the API is synchronous, the remaining data validation and live updating of the data will take place immediately and the call will be rejected if any business errors occur. If the API is asynchronous, the data is set aside to be processed later and the REST service is successfully returned noting that the data has been accepted. In the case of asynchronous processing, business error and failed data recovery is monitored and the dealt with outside of the REST web service.
Configured System Options In EICS
Web services apply system configuration to the request that are coming in through a web service but assumes that all in-put validation that requires user interaction to confirm has been completed by the third party system prior to accessing the service. It operates as if the user confirmed any activity. However, if a system option is a fixed restriction that does not require user interaction, and the input fails the restriction, this is always considered an error.
Examples of configurations being applied include:
Shipping inventory when inventory is less than 0 can be allowed by a user of EICS. The web services assumes that the application accessing the service did prompt the user or that their business always allows the user to this activity.
Adding a non-ranged item requires both a system configuration option to be enabled and the user to confirm the addition of the item. If the system configuration does not allow it, the web service will block the transaction and return an error (un-less processing asynchronously). If the system configuration does allow adding non-ranged items, it will automatically assume that a user confirmed this addition and processing will allow the addition of the item.
Allowing Receiver Unit Adjustments is dependent on a period of time. If a receiver unit adjustment were to come into EICS after that period of time, it would automatically be rejected, and the web service would return an error regardless of presentation or confirmation of user done by the external system.
External vs Internal Attributes
EICS web services are EICS centric and track information from an internal application point-of-view. This has ramifications on three types of data: identifiers, dates, and users.
Almost all paths and information will contain an identifier. In almost all cases, this will be an EICS internal identifier generated without our system. If external identifiers also exist for the date, they will be defined as such in the information. For example, you might encounter transferId and externalTransferId as attributes. In some cases, an API only takes an internal identifier, and you may need to use lookup APIs to retrieve an internal identifier using an external identifier as search criteria.
Timestamps are captured at the time an event occurs within EICS as part of EICS's internal tracking and state management. For example, we capture the timestamp when a shipment is created, last updated, and when it is dispatched. These timestamps occur at the time this occurred within EICS. When a REST service is called to create a transaction, such as a shipment, the create timestamp of the shipment will be the moment that service is called. If the shipment is dispatched using the web service, the dispatch date will be the moment that service is called. So if an external system dispatched a shipment two days earlier, and is just now calling the web service, it will not capture the external dispatch time. In some places, you will encounter a date that can be entered as part of the input information (for example, an externalDispatchDate, or simple a transactionTimestamp). If it is part of the input information, then it will be captured as that attribute defined in the API.
The user responsible for actions is often captured as part of transaction information with EICS. Some examples might be the user that created the data, the user the last updated it, or perhaps the user that approved it. In these cases, the user is considered an internal user as is assigned the current session user at the time the activity takes place. When accessing the REST service, the session user captured as the create user internally will likely be a secured user used to authenticate the web service and not the user that manipulated the information in an external system. If external users are to be captured by the data, there will be independent attribute fields such as externalCreateUser that capture the identity of a user in an external system.
Links In Content
JSON information for a data object may include links. These are self-referential APIs that defined other APIs that are available with the information. In the example below, when reading an activity lock, the following links were includes that define a path to accomplish other calls. HRef lists the basic reference and the “rel” the remainder of the path. So, when you read activity lock (1), you get a delete reference that maps to /activitylock/1/delete, defining the REST path to delete that lock.
[ {
"links" : [ {
"href" : "/activitylocks/1",
"rel" : "self"
}, {
"href" : "/activitylocks/1",
"rel" : "delete"
} ],
Hypertext Transfer Protocol Status Codes
The following information documents the HTTP status codes that Oracle returns via web services calls.
Success Codes
Successful codes are returned whenever the accessing client call was made without any error in the form or content.
Code | Description |
---|---|
200 OK |
The information supplied by the customer was in a correct form. This code is returned when reading a resource or querying information about an existing resource or schema. This response code is used when the access is synchronous. |
202 Accepted |
The information supplied by the customer as in a correct form. This code is returned when access is asynchronous. |
204 No Content |
The information supplied by the customer was in a correct form. The request was successful but the API itself never provides information as a response. |
Client Failure Codes
Client failure codes indicate the client made an error in their service access and must correct their code or its content to fix the failure.
Code | Description |
---|---|
400 Bad Request |
If this code is returned, it indicates the customer made a call with invalid syntax or violated the defined properties of the input information. Detailed information may be returned that further identifies the error. |
401 Unauthorized 403 Forbidden |
If either of these codes are returned, it indicates the access to service was denied. This may occur if no OAuth2 token was provided, or the token had expired, or the identity the token was generated for did not have sufficient access. |
404 Not Found |
If this code is returned, it indicates the customer made an erroneous access call against a resource or schema that is not defined. |
405 Method Not Allowed |
If this code is returned, it indicates that the wrong HTTP method was used to make the call. Please check the API. |
406 Not Acceptable |
If this code is returned, it indicates the wrong Accept header value was used to make the call. Please check the API. |
409 Too Many Requests |
If this code is returned, it indicates that the web service has received too many service requests recently. This may indicate a cloud issue requiring support to address or the client is making too many calls too frequently and a solution may be required to avoid the issue. |
System Failure Codes
System failure codes are returned whenever the processing server encounters an unexpected or severe failure.
Code | Description |
---|---|
500 Internal Server Code |
A server error occurred that did not allow the operation to complete. |
502 Bad Gateway 503 Service Unavailable 504 Gateway Timeout |
If any of these codes are returned, it indicates an issue with the network or cloud services, which may occur due to either client or cloud networking or infrastructure issues, such as outages. |
JSON Error Element and Error Codes
If an error occurs in the form of the content, or during processing of the content, an HTTP error code will be returned along with a series of JSON Error Elements as described here.

REST Service: Activity Lock
This service allows the creation, removal, and finding of activity locks.
An activity lock is a record indicating the user, time, and a piece of information (a transaction) that should be considered "locked". All server processing validates that the accessing user has a lock on the information before updating, notifying the current user if someone else has modified the information while they were locked and preventing the stale update.
Developers should create locks on transactional information prior
to performing update calls and delete locks when the update if finished.
For example, create a lock on inventory adjustment with ID 123 with
the ActivityLock service, then use saveInventoryAdjustment
in the Inventory Adjustment service with Adjustment 123, and then
delete the activity lock using the ActivityLock service. If you do
not gain the lock, you will receive an error when attempting to save
an inventory adjustment.

Sales Integration
EICS integrates with POS systems and Sales Audit systems to ensure that the inventory positions are accurate. This is especially important where accurate up-to-date inventory positions are required to reduce customer disappointment when trying to locate items that appear in inventory or delays in filling customer orders.
POS is the primary source of sales, returns, void, and some customer order transaction information to EICS.
ReSA sends only modified or new POS transaction records to EICS.
POS systems integrated with EICS can do the transaction notifications using a web service.
Sales Audit systems can only communicate through a file import process.
Figure 7-9 POS and Sales Audit Integration
![POS and Sales Audit Integration POS and Sales Audit Integration](img/intg_possales.png)
The following features are part of this integration:
-
Real-time web service integration
-
Batch integration
-
Audited sales data integration
-
Automatic disposition processing for returns
Batch processing and ReSA processing are discussed elsewhere as are the store and system configurations that might determine how the sale is processes.
POS and Sales Audit Process Flow
The following figure shows how a POS, Retail Sales Audit, and EICS are integrated. A POS generates an RTLog containing all the POS transactions and sends it to the Oracle Retail Sales Audit system (ReSA). ReSA sends the audited modified or new transactions to EICS. ReSA also sends the POS transaction upload file to merchandising to update inventory.
Please note that Oracle Retail Xstore is interfaced with EICS to update the inventory transactions near real time only through web service. It does not use batch.
Non-Oracle POS systems can use a batch to import transactions directly into EICS. EICS also processes the POS transactions that have been changed or entered into the sales audit system and updates the inventory based on the delta.
Figure 7-10 POS and Sales Audit Process Flow
![POS and Sales Audit Process Flow POS and Sales Audit Process Flow](img/intg_possalesauditfw.png)
There are two reasons for POS to send sales data directly to EICS and not to the auditing system:
-
Real-time inventory updates to support Commerce Anywhere are critical. A possible round trip from POS to ReSA to EICS takes too long in the dynamic inventory environment of today.
-
POS is the application that owns sales data and ReSA owns audited data. Architecturally, it makes more sense to have data supplied by the owner of that data. POS sends sales data and ReSA sends audit changes to EICS.
Sales and Return Processing
As part of the sales processing, EICS updates the inventory depending on the nature of the transaction. The following are the supported transaction types for the sales processing: Sale, Return, and Post Void of these transactions. The audit system should not modify the post void transactions. A change to a void is not supported by EICS.
Customer Order Processing
In EICS, the Retail Sales Audit import process, POS Transaction import process, and POS Transaction web service process support the following types of customer orders.
-
For layaway and on hold, EICS supports create, update, cancel, and pickup/delivery. For external web order type, only pickup transactions performed in POS are sent to EICS.
-
Pickup transactions, both in-store and external, cannot be voided or modified by sales audit and if these transactions are modified by sales audit system, EICS just drops the transaction and does not process.
Note:
Current Xstore functionality is limited to only layaway and on hold orders. Web order processing is not supported in this release.
Item Disposition
POS can move inventory for return and post void transactions to ’unavailable’ or ’out of stock’. This is especially useful in some environments where items returned must be disposed of or must be reprocessed.
The external sale transaction coming into EICS may include a reason code that is mapped to the inventory adjustment reason codes in EICS. Point of Service maps the EICS reason codes, and the reason codes are sent to EICS in the web service or file extract for the return and post void transactions. EICS first processes the return or post void and updates stock on hand. Next, if the reason code exists, EICS checks this reason code with the one in inventory adjustment reason code table. If a valid match is found, EICS generates an inventory adjustment to notify external systems and execute the disposition instructions tied to the inventory adjustment reason code. Based on the disposition mapped to the reason code, EICS moves the returned inventory to not for sale or out of stock and updates the history trail. If sub-buckets are used, they are also updated if the movement is to not for sale.
If the reason code received is invalid/not present/mapped incorrectly, the system writes an error log and continues to process the stock on hand part of the transaction.
Drop Ship
When the sales records indicate the record is a drop ship, EICS does not perform any processing of this record since the drop ship process implies the inventory is shipped from a third-party location and not from the store.
Item Types
EICS only processes SKU or UPC numbers. GS1 databars, or any other smart barcodes such as VPLUs or Type-E barcodes, should have been extracted to their SKU or UPC number by the POS system.
In addition, EICS only updates inventory for stock holding items. Non-inventory items do not update any stock on hand and are not processed.
Items with the store pack inventory indicator turned off are automatically broken down and the inventory of the component items is updated.
Integration with Customer Order System
CustomerOrderAddressService
When shipping to customer during the fulfillment order workflow, EICS retrieves the address for the order delivery from an external order managements system. When viewing delivery address information within the client application, it also retrieves it from an external system. The web service is defined to connect to an OrderManagementService.
Service Operation | Description |
---|---|
queryCustomerOrderAddress |
Retrieves detailed address information for the order and customer information passed to it. |
CustomerOrderService
This service connects to OrderManagementService to manage customer orders. It includes operations to create a customer order, query for customer orders, pickup/cancel items from a customer order and return items from customer orders.

Queries the customer order present in the system. |
PickupCustomerOrderItems |
Pickup items from the customer order. |
ReturnCustomerOrderItems |
Returns items from the customer order. |
UpdateReceipt |
Updates the receipt of customer order. |
Integration with Manifesting Systems
In order for access to an external manifesting system to take place, the customer must first setup Carrier Type as "Third Party" and the Carrier Service (Manifest Type) must be Parcel (P). Configuration controls whether manifesting is done for a transfer to store, finisher, or warehouse. In addition, configuration controls manifesting for a return to vendor shipment or a customer order delivery.
Carrier services with manifest type of "O" (Other) and "H" (Home Fleet) do not go through the manifesting system. When Manifest Type is "O," EICS prompts the user to enter the carrier address where the shipment is to be sent for fulfillment. Manifest Type of "H" is within the company and therefore, does not prompt the user for an address.
Some carriers require weight, dimension, or both values to be sent in the manifest payload. If so, the carrier's service should have either the weight indicator or carton dimension indicate set to active (or both) during their carrier service setup.
EICS supplies an outbound and inbound Shipment Manifest SOAP web service. The following are supported service operations:
A web service is used to send all the shipment information to the external manifesting system and also to receive close shipment requests from external systems.
A web service accepts requests from external systems to close shipments. It is used to find those "Submitted" shipments for the provided tracking ID, carrier, service and date, and dispatch those shipments.
Note:
EICS supplies a WSDL and XSD that defines the web service, operation, and data content. This web service will need to be implemented either for the manifesting system or a plug-in set up.
ShipmentManifestService
This web service notifies an external manifesting system that a manifest needs to be created.
Service Operation | Description |

Retail Home Integration
EICS now supports following integration scenarios with Retail Home:
-
Launch SIOCS web client from Retail Home
-
Launch SIOCS favorites from Retail Home
-
Display a tile report for items that are out of stock on shop floor
-
Display a tile report for stock counts that are pending authorization
-
Launch detailed operational views in SIOCS web client from related tile reports in Retail Home
Launch SIOCS from Retail Home
Launching SIOCS client requires an entry to be made under the application navigator section of Retail Home. It enables the user to launch SIOCS web client in a new browser tab from within Retail Home. Please refer to Oracle Retail Home Administration Guide for information on how to work with application navigator in Retail Home.
The SIOCS application configuration should look like this:
Figure 7-11 Add Application Info
![Add Application Info Screen Add Application Info Screen](img/intg_addappinfo.png)
-
Seeded: Disabled and set to No.
-
Application Navigator: Enable it to launch SIOCS client from Retail Home.
-
Application Name: The name of the application that is, Store Inventory Operations Cloud.
-
Color Set: Any color that you want to allocate to SIOCS.
-
Application Code: Select SIOCS from the drop down.
-
Application Link: The URL of SIOCS web client.
-
Platform Service: Enable it to use Favorites feature.
-
URL: The base URL of the platform services. The URL would be of the form
https://<SIOCS-HOST>/RetailAppsPlatformServices
<SIOCS-HOST> is the same host in Application Link.
-
Supported Features: Check only the favorites feature.
-
The user needs to be part of RETAIL_HOME_ADMIN security group in order to access Application Navigator in Retail Home.
Tile Reports
EICS supports following two types of two metric reports:
-
Shop Floor Out of Stock Items
-
Stock Counts - Ready to Authorize
Adding an application navigator entry for SIOCS will automatically configure EICS tiles on Retail Home.
The data seed features do the following:
-
Creates a custom report for EICS tiles on Retail Home.
-
Creates two tiles from the custom report and maps them to retail_home_users IDCS or OCI IAM application role.
-
The data seed features will also configure tile states for the two tiles and hook them up with EICS end points.
After all the configuration, you should be able to see EICS tiles on the dashboard. They should look like the ones below:
Figure 7-12 Example EICS Tiles
![Example EICS Tiles Example EICS Tiles](img/intg_shopfloor.png)
EICS Endpoints
EICS exposes following two endpoints:
Shop Floor Out of Stock Items
This endpoint can be used as a data source for Shop floor Out of Stock tile state.
The response contains information on number of items that are out of stock across all the stores that are accessible to the user.
If the percentage of out of stock items to total items is greater than the Shopfloor Out of Stock Items Critical Percentage system configuration, EICS marks the response as important which displays a '!' mark next to the number on the tile report.
Table 7-1 Shop Floor Out of Stock
Endpoint | Operational View |
---|---|
https://<eics_external_load_balancer_address>/<CUST_ENV>/siocs-client-services/internal/rhreports/outofstock/shopfloor/tile |
Shopfloor Out of Stock |
Stock Counts - Ready to Authorize
This endpoint can be used as a data source for Stock Count - Ready to Authorize tile state.
The response contains information on number of stock counts that are pending authorization across all stores that are accessible to the user.
Table 7-2 Stock Counts - Ready to Authorize
Endpoint | Operational View |
---|---|
https://<eics_external_load_balancer_address>/<CUST_ENV>/siocs-client-services/internal/rhreports/readytoauthorize/tile |
Stock Count - Ready To Authorize |
The response payloads of both these endpoints confirm to the two metric payload specifications of Retail Home.
User should be a part of retail_home_users IDCS or OCI IAM application role to access these endpoints.
For convenience, EICS also provides a RETAIL HOME security role that captures security permissions required to access these operational views. The user still needs appropriate functional area permissions to navigate to transaction detail screens.
SIOCS Operational Views
EICS has added following operational views that can be hooked with related tiles:
-
Shopfloor Out of Stock Items
This view gives a store and item level breakdown of the information that is displayed on the tile. The user can look at item level records for each store and navigate to the item detail screen for any store/item combination provided he or she has the required permissions.
This view is available under Operations / Operational Views / Shopfloor Out of Stock menu.
-
Stock Count - Ready to Authorize
This view gives a store and stock count level breakdown of the information that is displayed on the tile. The user can look at stock count level records for each store and navigate to the stock count detail for any store/count combination provided he or she has the required permissions.
This view is available under Operations / Operational Views / Stock Count / Ready to Authorize menu.
Launch SIOCS Operational Views from Tile Report
Launching SIOCS operational views from related tile report requires the tile report to be configured with the URL of the related operational view. Once that is done, clicking on tile report header should open the related EICS operational view in a new browser tab.
Subscription Usage Batch
EICS has added a new batch to extract subscription usage for EICS and SOCS respectively during the subscription period. These extracted metrics are pushed to platform services from where Retail Home displays these on the Application Dashboard screen.
This is a restricted batch which by default is scheduled to run every month. The schedule can only be updated by a sysop user.
It can also be run as an Adhoc batch from EICS / Admin / Technical Maintenance / Job Admin / Adhoc Job.
REST Web Service OAuth2 Requests
This section will describe how to call an EICS web service using the OAuth2 protocol. The target audience is developers who are looking to write code that calls the web service.
Using the OAuth Protocol
The OAuth protocol is relatively straightforward:
-
Get an access token from the authentication provider
-
Pass the access token along with the web service request
In this case, the authentication provider is Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IDCS). Every customer who purchases a subscription to EICS gets a subscription to IDCS as part of their purchase.
Obtaining a Token
To generate a token from IDCS, an IDCS application client will need to be created for you to use.
Please contact customer's IDCS administrator for FTS Client ID and Client Secret to use.
This is created during provisioning but for special situations additional application clients can be made in IDCS after provisioning.
You will need the following information about the IDCS application client to request a token:
-
IDCS URL
-
Client Id
-
Client Secret
-
Scope Name
Note:
The application client must be assigned the scope from the EICS IDCS cloud service in order to request the token. This assignment is performed when the application client is created.
The scope name will differ for each environment. Please ensure the correct value is used for your environment.
To generate a token, you will need to invoke the appropriate IDCS REST API. The curl command in Linux that describes the POST that will return a token is as follows:
curl -H 'Authorization: Basic <base64(clientId:clientSecret)>'
-H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8'
--request POST <IDCS URL>/oauth2/v1/token -d 'grant_type=client_credentials&scope=<EICS
Scope>'
In Windows, use double-quotes, as follows:
curl -H "Authorization: Basic <base64(clientId:clientSecret)>"
-H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8"
--request POST <IDCS URL>/oauth2/v1/token -d "grant_type=client_credentials&scope=<EICS
Scope>"
This is a standard REST POST, with the following details:
-
<IDCS URL> is the IDCS URL the retailer provided
-
Include the Client Id and Client Secret as a Basic Authentication header
-
Specify the Content Type as application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8
-
Specify the body as grant_type=client_credentials&scope=<EICS Scope>
The service will respond with the following JSON message:
{
"access_token": "<TOKEN>",
"token_type": "Bearer",
"expires_in": 3600
}
Note that the response will return how long the token is valid for. You should reuse the same token until it expires in order to minimize calls to IDCS to get a token.
If the token request fails, you will receive the following JSON response:
{
"error":"<error>",
"error_description":"<error description>",
"ecid":"u….."
}
The most common errors are:
-
Invalid Client. This means that the client information you send in is not correct. The error description will expand on the reason:
-
Client Authentication Failed means that the client is valid, but the client secret is incorrect.
-
Invalid OAuth Client <CLIENT> means that the client id is not valid, and the invalid client will be listed in the error message.
-
-
Invalid Request. Some part of the inbound request is not valid. The error description is usually descriptive about what the actual error condition is
Calling the EICS Web Service
To invoke the web service with an OAuth2 token, you must add an Authorization header to the request. The value of the Authorization header must be Bearer <token>, that is:
-
The word Bearer
-
A space
-
A valid token
For a REST service call, the request might look something like this:
curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -H 'Authorization: Bearer <TOKEN>' -i https://CloudServiceURL --data '{PAYLOAD}'
Remember that the token will expire after a specific amount time, and to be more efficient you should always use a token so long as it's valid. It is your responsibility to make sure that you are keeping track of whether the token is still valid. Your pattern should be:
-
Check to see if you have a valid token that has not expired.
-
If not, call to IDCS and get a new token. Store it and its expiration time.
-
Send the request into the web service with the token in the Authorization header as a Bearer token.
